Default Creating and Saving Bot Groups (outside of your group)

WARNING: I wrote this to help better understand the concept of creating and
saving bot groups, but this ONLY applies to servers that enable bots groups.

First, create and spawn 6 bots. DO NOT invite them to your group.
Just for example let's say you named those bots like this:
Bot1, Bot2, bot3, bot4, bot5 and bot6
Decide which bot you want to be the group leader and target that bot.
In this case, I choose Bot1 to be the leader.
After you target bot1, type #bot botgroup create
After you type that, the leader you had targeted will come close to you(to follow)
Now you have 5 other bots to add to the group. One by one do it this way:
(REMEMBER, your adding the other bots to a group lead by Bot1, so you add them all
to his/her group. (as you add them, you will notice each one follow the leader)
#bot botgroup add bot2 bot1 (you just added bot2 to bot1's group)
#bot botgroup add bot3 bot1 (you add all of them to bot1's group)
#bot botgroup add bot4 bot1
#bot botgroup add bot5 bot1
#bot botgroup add bot3 bot1

NOW, you have to give your group a name when you save it. In this case I will call my group mybotgroup.
FIRST, target the group leader (in this case bot1)
Then I type #bot botgroup save mygroup bot1

now you have a group of bots saved called "mygroup"

From now on, all you need to do when you want to spawn that group is type:
#bot botgroup load mygroup (or make a social hotkey for it)

The group of bots will spawn and automatically start following you.
BUT, if you want to camp the whole group, sorry, you have to camp them one by one.
Unless someone knows otherwise, please enlighten us. (smirk)
There is no #bot group camp type of command. BUt if your camping your own toon, they will camp anyways.

You can repeat all of this to create a second, third or more groups, you just have to
REMEMBER, when you save the group, it gets saved with a specific group name that you choose.
It has to be a different group name than other ones.
(You can't have two bot groups named mygroup)

Then when loading more than one group, you just use the same command, but with
each of their own group names, for example:
#bot botgroup load mygroup
#bot botgroup load myothergroup (and so on, and so on....)

EDIT: Just wanted to add a tip. If your having probs with any bot agro'ing when it's not supposed to,
target the bot and type #bot taunt off seems to help as I've learned.
